I am just curious as to how many of you future dentist have terrible teeth. I personally have had 2 root canals,crowns,countless cavities......what about you guys and gals?? or maybe im just a mess...
 
That's the nice thing about being a dental student-- While in dental school you can get all of your dental problems fixed, most of the time for free, sometimes cheaply (if you get things like braces etc.). 😀

Just remember not to let your classmate treatment-plan you for full-mouth extraction and complete dentures. :laugh:
 
Braces are free here at BU. All you have to do is become friends with some 4th years and they'll be kind enough to do a lot for you (They'll introduce you to some Ortho residents too).
 
Thats cool how you guys get free dental care. Does that include cosmetic dentistry? Cause I'm really interested in getting some veneers for free!
 
I *had* really awful teeth...abysmal. Terrible. But then i met a cool dentist when i was in the Army who changed everything.

I plan on submitting my old photo next to my new photo when I apply. I can post it for you all too. IS there a way i can post pics on here? I had 20 crowns, 8 root canals (or re-treat) 5 crown lengthening gum surgeries, and countless cavities fixed. The results are amazing.
 
GreenBeret,

i'd love to see the before and after pics of your teeth...

Comet!
